Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist government was perceived as ineffective and corrupt in its resistance against the Japanese, leading to a loss of support among the Chinese populace. In contrast, Mao Zedong and the Communist Party were seen as more successful in their guerrilla warfare against the Japanese, which garnered significant peasant support. This shift in support was a crucial factor in the Communists' eventual victory in the Chinese Civil War following World War II.
